Rheumatism

1t is an established fact that Hoods Sar.
saparilla has proven an invaluable remedy
in many severe cases of rheumatism, effect
ing remarkable cures by its powerful action
in correcting the acidity of the blood, which
is the cause of the disease, and purifying
and enriching the vital fluid.
1t is certainly fair to assume that what
Hoods Sarsaparilla has done for others it
viii do for you. Therefore, if you suffer
the pains and aches of rheumatism, give
this potent remedy a fair trial.

Joshua C.. Morse.

Many an eye moistened; and heart quick
ened at the announcement Saturday morn
ing of the death of this man, so widely
known and universally loved and respected.
Born in South Berwick, August IL, 1911,
his early life was passed in Haverhill, Mass,
but when young man his parents came to
Portland, where, with the exception of few
years, he has always resided. Prompt and
generous in disposition, sympathetic to the
last degree, no call for assistance ever passed
him unnoticed and, without ostentation,
many man in Portland today will remem.
Der his call in behalf Of some worthy charity,
perhaps unknown but for his careful inves-
tigation and quick response.
Being an expert swimmer and quick to act
he has at different times saved nine persons
from drowning. Mr.. Morse has been asso-
ciated in business here with three different
gentlemen-William Gray, Freeman Green
ough and A. e. Howell-retiring from active
business some four years since. The patron
age of public life had NO attraction for him,
though he expressed freely his commenda-
ton or denunciation of those in official posi-
tions.
An active and prominent member of Free
street Baptist church for nearly fifty years,
his loss will be most keenly felt there where
his earnest Christian influence was so pow
erfully exerted. Mr. Morse leaves a wife
and two children, one the wife of j. G. Lord
OF Lewiston, the other son, residing in Mt
Vernon, III. 1t was a singular fact that Mr.
Morse's death occurred just one year from
that Of his brother, the late G. A b. Morse

What Insurance Does.

Insurance is the safeguard of traffic. 1t
enables rich man to keep rich and poor
man to count with certainty on his gains
and savings. Every year it becomesl more
of necessity, and takes higher step in re-
lation to the commercial world. 1t endorses
for you; 1T advances you money to commence
anew when all has been swept away by fire !;
it gives man feeling of security and en-
courages greater exertion, knowing that
his accumulation can be preserved to him,
and is of sufficient Importance to receive the
careful consideration and sacred thought of
every man who wishes to be regarded as
thorough business man, exercising care and
prudence in all departments of his business
1t is good thing to have as much of it as
you or your property is worth, and that you
can afford to carry. One of the la rgest agen
cies engaged in the business of fire and ma
rine insurance in the State is that of VIM.
Allen, Jr., OF % Exchange street. Mr.. Allen
represents aggregate insurance assets Of
nearly eighty millions Of dollars, in some of
the most standard English and American
companies of the world, and he is enabled to
present to the public facilities for effecting
insurance to any amount, second TO none in
the country. By the careful and prompt
manner in which his business has been con-
Quoted, giving especial attention to the de-
tails. this agency has kept pace with the
growth of the business in this city, until
now its operations are widely extended and
its reputation firmly established. All losses
have been paid with promptness, always
discharging the important trusts committed
to them with great fidelity, and to the COM
plete satisfaction of all concerned.

SUPERIOR COURT.
BEFORE JUDGE BoNNEY.

SATURDAY-Mlchael Stevens and another VS..
Daniel Mayberry, Jr and Adleb Mayberry.
This is an action of asSumpst against Daniel
Mayberry, Jr., trucknan, and his wife, to recov
er S365.b5 for grain sold and delivered the hus-
and in 1886 and 1887.
Daniel Mayberry, Jr., has been procuring his
grain from the plaintiff since 1882, settling his
bills usually every three months. The grain sued
for in this writ was delivered the husband and
charged to him alone. Some time in March last,
the account becoming somewhat larger than us
ual, Mr.. Stevens called upon Maybery to pay.
They then discovered that the ten horses iiggers,
harnesses, ETC., with which Mr.. Mayberry was and
had been doing business had been transferred by
bill of sale in August, 1885, to Mrs. Mayberry his
wife. The plaintiffs therefore claim to hold her in
this suit on the ground that the husband in pur-
chasing the grain was acting as her agent. Dan
lei MayberTy Jr., has been defaulted but the wife
defends on the ground that the husband had con
troll and management of the teams and the in
come from them with the exception of one team
of which she has had the income since last fall
She claims that her husband was not her agent
and that as no credit was given her by the plain
tiff she is not liable. After the evidence was out
the case was withdrawn from the jury and will go
to the law court on report, the court to render
such judgment as the legal rights of the parties
require.

The mackerel fleet report no catches the
past week, and nearly all the vessels have
hauled up. The landings for the week foot
up 2199 barrels against 1853 last week and
1858 barrels for the corresponding week last
year. The total New England catch, as COM
piled by the Boston Fish Bureau, now ag-
gregates "a, 33barrels, against rs, 703 barrels
for the same time last year; decrease of
about 1000 barrels. But this is a small def
cheney compared with 1885, when the catch
was $4,000 barrels. or with 1884, when the
catch up to this time was 416,000 barrels. No
stock of any consequence remains in first
hands, and what there is consists mainly of
No. Is and extras. No. IS are about all
cleaned up, and No. Is are .going off rapidly
The catch of mackerel in the weirs of Cape
Cod is fairly satisfactory, and promises to
hold out for a few weeks longer.
